Which Ruth Johnson married Jonathan Shepard (and which married Jonathan Page)

Shepard and Jacobus, 3:330, have Ruth Johnson, daughter of Thomas4 and Rachel (Ordway) Johnson, born 5 July 1710 at Haverhill, marrying Jonathan Shepard of Rowley and Haverhill. Eleanor Johnson Baker, p. 27, has her marrying Jonathan Page of Haverhill and her second cousin once removed, Ruth Johnson, daughter of Thomas3 and Elizabeth (Page) Johnson, born 24 August 1709 at Haverhill, marrying Jonathan Shepard. Thomas3 d. 1742, and apparently has no probate file in Essex County. Thomas4 left a will, dated 1753, naming daughter Ruth normally (i.e., not labeled deceased, no mention of heirs, etc., but also with no surname given), and it appears the daughter of Thomas4 was alive, ruling her out as the wife of Jonathan Shepard, leaving daughter of Thomas3 as Jonathan Shepard's wife.
